i have just bought a z4 (2004) and was wondering if anybody knows of a cycle carrier available.
i realise that there may not be one but on the off chance that anyone knows i would be glad to hear about it

thanks

Welcome to Zd world alastairshearer6, great to have another Z4 in the fold. Hope you have many happy miles. I know of at least one Z3 on here with a rack, but not a Z4 yet. Could be worth an enquiry to your local stealer first to see what accesories were/are available. Would give some idea what is possible. Good Luck.

I have one for Z3 and am sure it would fit a Z4.
If you use the search facility and search for bike and rack then this will give you about 6 threads on this with pics.
Hope you get enough dry days in Greenock to enjoy..
Cheers

Hi,

I have a Saris Bones 2 for my Z3 and is an adjustable fit and straps on well. Used it on a few trips with the hood down and all fine, including 70 on the dual carrageway.

Note: I also bought a few straps to stop the wheels spinning and the front one moving plus one to secure the pedals in a fixed position just in case.

Edit: Just checked the Saris website and the Sentinel or Gaurdian is suited for the Z4. (Sentinel 2 is £45 from Evans Cycles..)

Hope it helps,
Gary
